I actually think it's a very hard fight. If Khan's chin was solid I'd think it was probably an 80-20 fight in his favour but Bradley's toughness versus Khan's vulnurabilities shortens the odds considerably. Thing is, I can't actually see Bradley stopping Khan. Only 11 ko's in his career I just don't think he has the power. He's more like Juan Diaz when he was at his best, overpowering guys with sheer pressure rather than punch power.

I think Khan sweeps the early rounds and holds on down the stretch to win a fairly comfortabe decision but with acouple scary moments.
Kahn isn't forcing critics to eat their words. He is improving dramatically and therefore changing the equation. A year ago a far lesser Kahn would likely have been eaten up by Bradley in my view. He would also have been eaten up by the Kahn who fought this weekend. He's a LOT better than the guy who beat Malignaggi.
I think it's called 'The Roach factor' and that is only going to become more apparent.
Yup. But we gotta give the kid credit too. He is showing an impressive willingness and ability to learn.
